Kim's Flower Shop, Fields Corner

Kim’s Flower Shop was founded by Vivian Veth and Junior Pena in 2016. Kim’s Flower Shop is located in Fields Corner in Dorchester. Vivian and Junior had been working together for more than 30 years. They decided to name Kim’s Flower Shop after her mom because her mom loves flowers.

Then in 2017 Vivian and Junior participated in Tết in Boston, which is an annual Vietnamese Lunar New Year festival that is organized by the Vietnamese American community in Massachusetts. They also made a website for Kim’s Flower Shop in 2018 where you can order flowers.

Kim’s Flower Shop is important to the community because it’s a flower shop. Any flower shop is important because flowers can make people happy. They can also motivate people.
